We seem to have more experience and explosive players on offense and I am looking forward to seeing what Mike Riley and Danny Langsdorf do with the talent.

Tommy Armstrong with the help of his wr's (best group in big ten) will win alott of games for nebraska this year late in the season when they need them most.

More weapons on offense. Too many questions on defense.

While it might not be dynamic, there is good talent and depth at receiver and more opportunity with the O-line than most give credit. The key will be quarterbacking, where i predict Darlington will overtake Armstrong at some point, and adaptability of the coaching staff to match talent with strate

The defensive staff is less proven, personnel question marks at DE and depth issues at LB.

Although the talent is good enough on the DL, we're thin at LB. Also, not sure about banker or at least more sure of MR & DL at least for now. We'll see, I am hoping that the days of Wisconsin blow-outs are a thing of the past

Because Tommy Armstrong does not play on the defence.

Going back to fundamental defense and getting rid of the complex garbage of Pelini. Big difference.

the defense will be more aggressive and attacking and different from the past which was less aggressive.

I think that the simplified scheme will make the defense better early. The first string looks very talented. The lack of depth at some positions could hurt the d late however. Staying healthy will be important. A pro-style offense takes several years to perfect so I think there will be growing pains

Glad to see an acknowledgement that the O wasn't working. This shows some urgency about winning which I appreciate.

Seems pretty obvious that when something is not working very well and you don’t know how to fix it you bring in outside experts for advise. Common practice.

Holgerson has enough experience that he should be able to watch some film and the players in practice and call plays that play to their strengths. I'm betting he is also smart enough to stick with what's working until the other team stops it, and to develop some offensive rhythm.

Anything is better than Satterfield. But I don't know why we didn't go after the US Army's OC who only makes $190k and absolutely knows how to run the ball.

Because Army's OC can call the triple option and run the ball, but he probably doesn't know how to call for a pro-style quarterback. Plus it is very unlikely that Army's OC is going to jump ship right now the way their season is going. Maybe gets a look after the season if Holgerson doesn't stay.

Installing a whole new offense would be very difficult. You might be able to refine a small portion but learning the timing and terminology would be difficult.
